As a Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft, I work with various clients and industries to design and implement data and AI solutions, leveraging the power of cloud computing and artificial intelligence. I collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver innovative and scalable products and services that meet the customer needs and expectations.
I am passionate about using my technical and interpersonal skills to create positive social and environmental impact. As the founder of a charity called Good in Humanity, we aim to ensure that every child in Zambia has access to education and every Zambian woman is empowered through a range of different projects and programmes. Alongside that, I'm also pursuing a Master of Science degree in International Business Leadership and Management at the University of York, where I learn how to apply strategic and ethical leadership principles to global business challenges. I am an Associate Member of The Institute of Mechanical Engineers and Charted Management Institute, and I hold multiple certifications in accessibility, computer literacy, and Azure.
